Well, I'm not really a fan of the situation where there is no equal playing field for everyone. Yes, it is part of the rally one way or another, but at the moment, if you are in the road position in the first 3-4 cars, you basically have zero chances to do anything meaningful for the entire rally.

We are also watching the title contenders "fighting" for places like 7 to 10. What kind of message does it send? How to explain it, and is it attractive to potential new fans and audience?
Tänak started from 4th position and is currently fighting for the podium positions. At first I also thought that the last event should be less a lottery and more equal regarding the starting position, but my opinion is changing. If you are fighting for the championship and you know the last rally is full or surprises, then you have to keep that in mind and try to have a decent points advantage before this event.
